sandwiches. salads, coffee, etc, all of
which speedily melted before the an

The chief sat in state at the head of the
room for some time later, receiving

evening, and q demonstration was
made of the speed with which the
horses and men could get into their
places after the sounding OF the gong.

WASHINGTON, February 8.-The fol-
lowing is published in this afternoons
papers as a press dispatch from Salt
Lake. "A strong Mormon lobby left
here Yesterday for Washington to work
against the Edmunds-Tucker bill.
Among its members are: E. A. Smith,
president of the Council; W. w. Ritter,
speaker of the House in the last Legis-
lature; Mayor Armstrong and other
officials. The talk here is that they go
as homogeneous Mormons, prepared
to give up polygamy, provided the
Mormons be not pre- ssed End that Utah
be admitted as a State, after which
they would do as they pleased. The
Gentiles here are much discouraged
at the delay, and begin to dread
another failure of Congress to assert
itself against Mormon treason"

after the meeting had adjourned, and
inquired whether, in his opinion, an
efficient association could be main
tanned in the face of the stfsSures as to
pooling, (which the interstate COM
MERGE act prevented. There is no
doubt of il" replied Blanchard; "there
is very erroneous impression with
great many people, that the object of
the Central Traffic Association is
to pool the business of its members.
The real purpose of the association is
to maint4in rates, and the pooling of
business is only one of the means
adopted to obtain this object"
And can rates be maintained with
out some means of apportioning bust
ness from common points among COM
petitive lines?"
Undoubtedly; some members be-
lieve that, under the interstate COM
merce act, means can be devised where
by the business may be apportione0
without violating the clause prohibit
ing pooling, but the general feeling is
not to attempt
ANYTHING OF THIS KIND JUST NOW,
but to allow each line to keep all the
business it gets"
Would not that encourage cutting
Of rates?"
No, for the reason that it must be
done openly. and for everybody; the
cutting of rates in the past has been
most disastrous, because it was done
secretly and in favor of the large
shippers. A road would make re
duction quietly and scoop all the bust
ness; other lines would not know of it
until it was too late; but now they will
know at once and can meet it promptly
so that there will be, no advantage to
be obtained by reduction"
